Computer related:

  • Don’t be your family computer savy guy, you just found yourself a bunch payless jobs…
  • Long desks are cool and all, but the amount the space they occupy is not worth it.
  • Block work related phone calls at weekends, being disturbed at your leisure for things that could be resolved on Mondays will sour your day.

Buying stuff:

  • There is expensive because of brand and expensive because of material quality, do your research.
  • Buck buying is underrated, save yourself a few bucks, pile that toilet paper until the ceiling is you must.
  • Second hand/broken often means never cleaned, lubricated or with easy fixable problem.

    Long story short: someone else’s advice ITT reminded me a uni professor talking about a student hurting themself with glacial acetic acid. That reminded me how often I’m using alcohol vinegar for cleaning (alcohol vinegar is basically one part of glacial acetic acid for 24 parts of water), but I don’t see people doing it often - instead they often buy expensive cleaning agents that they use everywhere as “magical” solutions.

      Why is it called “glacial” like it’s got something to do with ice? Why not simply “concentrated”, which it is? Thanks
